Ihr Ziel ist es, ein Programm zu schreiben, das das folgende Gedicht genau so ausgibt, wie es hier erscheint:

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly.
I don't know why she swallowed that fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a spider,
That wriggled and iggled and jiggled inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed that fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a bird,
How absurd to swallow a bird.
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed that fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a cat,
Imagine that to swallow a cat.
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed that fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a dog,
What a hog to swallow a dog.
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
I don't know why she swallowed that fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a horse,
She died of course.

Der Text muss genau so aussehen wie hier, und es gewinnen die wenigsten Zeichen.

Perl 5.10, 392 384 372 235 369 (ASCII) / 234 (Unicode)

Die kürzeste ASCII-Version ist 369 Zeichen lang:

That wrJand Jand jJinside her",",

Perhaps she'll die.

$_";$_.="$c$P.
$t";s/&/ to! a$c/}s/!/ swallow/g;s/J/iggled /g;say"$_ horse,
She died of course."

Es begann mit diesem Basisprogramm:

my @animals = qw(fly spider bird cat dog);
my $buf = "There was an old lady who swallowed a ";
for my $phrase ( "",
                 ",\nThat wriggled and iggled and jiggled inside her",
                 ",\nHow absurd&",
                 ",\nImagine that&",
                 ",\nWhat a hog&" ) { 
  $previous = $current;
  $current = shift @animals;
  $trail = $previous ? "She swallowed the $current to catch the $previous,\n$trail"
                     : "I don't know why she swallowed that $current,\n"
                       . "Perhaps she'll die.\n\n$buf";
  $buf .= "$current$phrase.\n$trail";
  $buf =~ s/&/ to swallow a $current/;
}
say "$buf horse,\nShe died of course.";

Die Kernidee ist es, das Ende des Reims und den Anfang des nächsten Reims beizubehalten und es im weiteren Verlauf zu $trailerweitern. Die Notwendigkeit eines speziellen Falls für die erste Verwendung und der Versuch, die Variable für den Tiernamen auch in der tierspezifischen Phrase wiederzuverwenden, machen sie nicht trivial. Weitere Optimierungen umfassen:

• Ein-Zeichen-IDs für alles
• Verwenden von Barewords anstelle von Anführungszeichen für die Tierliste
• Verwendung des Speichers $_für die $bufmeisten Substitutionsoperationen noch mehr zu verkürzen (Verwendung @_ist durch die Macht der Gewohnheit und gewinnen nichts mehr als jedes andere Zeichen)
• Einfügen des vorangegangenen Leerzeichens direkt in die Tiernamenvariable (das Leerzeichen aus der $"Variablen)
• Regexp-Substitution zur Verkürzung der gebräuchlichsten Ausdrücke: ' swallow'und'iggled '
• \nKeinerlei Code-Abstände und alles in String-Literalen, die durch aktuelle Zeilenumbrüche ersetzt wurden

Alle außer der letzten Optimierung ergeben dies:

@_ = (fly, spider, bird, cat, dog);
$_ = "There was an old lady who!ed a";
for $P ( "",
         ",\nThat wrJand Jand jJinside her",
         ",\nHow absurd&",
         ",\nImagine that&",
         ",\nWhat a hog&" ) { 
  $p = $c;
  $c = $" . shift @_;
  $t = $p ? "She!ed the$c to catch the$p,\n$t"
          : "I don't know why she!ed that$c,\nPerhaps she'll die.\n\n$_";
  $_ .= "$c$P.\n$t";
  s/&/ to! a$c/;
}
s/!/ swallow/g;
s/J/iggled /g;
say "$_ horse,\nShe died of course.";

Darüber hinaus ist dieser Golf ein Opfer des Problems der unterbestimmten Codierung. Da in einer bestimmten Codierung ab sofort einzelne Zeichen anstelle von Bytes gezählt werden, ist ein großer Gewinn zu erzielen, wenn die Programmquelle vor dem Start von UCS2 decodiert wird. Das Endergebnis ist nicht mehr gut lesbar, aber es ist in Ordnung, kurz. (234 Zeichen, gezählt als Unterschied zu perl -E''wie üblich)

Zum Golfen gab es schon viel, bevor man auf Unicode zurückgegriffen hat, sonst würde es nicht viel Spaß machen.

Erläuterung

LIST B=fly,spider,bird,cat,dog,horse           // Ink's "LIST"s aren't much like lists - they're more like enums. Here we create a list type stating what animals exist, and make a set containing none of them.
VAR s=" swallow "                              // Pretty self-explanatory
-(i)~B=B(i)                                    // The i label keeps track of how many times we've visited it. We set B (the set) to be equal to the i-th item in B (the list type).
There was an old lady who{s}ed a {B}{.|,}      // Print the first line. {.|,} is a sequence - it's a period the first time it's encountered, and a comma every subsequent time.
                                               // Sequences can have more than one item in them, which is how we print the second line. When we get to the horse one, we terminate the program right away.
{|That wriggled and iggled and jiggled inside her|How absurd|Imagine that|What a hog|She died of course.->END}{|.|to{s} a {B}}.}
-(k)~B--                                       // Step back through the list type.
{B:                                            // A conditional - we execure the next two lines if B is non-empty.
She{s}ed the {B+1} to catch the {B},           // Print the "she swallowed the..." line

Diese Lösung ist ein 46-Byte-Dekomprimierer BinaryDeserialize@ByteArray@ToCharacterCode@"...", der auf ein 248-Byte-Array einwirkt, das als ASCII-Zeichenfolge maskiert ist. Das Übertragen dieser Zeichenfolge zwischen verschiedenen Programmen ist etwas schwierig. TIO beispielsweise vergrößert diese Lösung mithilfe der UTF-8-Codierung auf 416 Byte, anstatt die ASCII-Zeichenfolge beizubehalten. Speichern Sie den Text in einer Variablen, textund führen Sie aus, um die minimale 295-Byte-Lösung zu erhalten

BinaryWrite["ThereWasAnOldLady.wl", Join[
  ToCharacterCode["BinaryDeserialize@ByteArray@ToCharacterCode@\""],
  Normal[BinarySerialize[text, PerformanceGoal -> "Size"]] /. {34 -> Sequence[92, 34]},
  ToCharacterCode["\""]]]

Führen Sie dann die generierte Datei in der Befehlszeile mit aus

wolframscript -print -f ThereWasAnOldLady.wl
